As some of you may have noticed, the "Scale" Seawolf Kits can never actually be Scale, do to the fact that on the Actual Missile, the Tube begins to narrow where the forward Fins stop. Also the Nose Cone that comes with Kits is typically an Ogive and not true to Scale either, but that part is easy, as a Lathe can be used to turn a Cone.
My question to those who care to entertain it is, what would be the best way to get that reduction in Diameter for the top end of the Body Tube?
I immagine that cutting it and removing some then squeezing it together and papering over the Seams would work???
I want to do a 2.6" to fly, then later get the Madcow 4" and build it, but wait to get my L1 to fly it.
The second Pic' shows this Diameter Step Down quite well.
